...I really haven't looked all that hard for MPDs myself, once I get out the old Stereo microscope from storage (soon this month hopefully), I'll go through all my Two Cent Pieces again in search of any,


I'm just curious if you've had some time to go through these to discover any new MPDs or other undiscovered varieties. I was going to sell several of my 2 centers but was hesitant until I first touched back with you.

thx

I might have some undocumented 1865 Fancy 5 ones, but there isn't really a way to know for sure, I should check with Frank Leone on them, he seems to have a good listing. I haven't looked hard for MPDs really, I should using my microscope I suppose. Shoot me any photos of what you are selling I'd be happy to at least look at them and or make an offer if I need any. Mostly I'm looking for ones with die cracks or other minutia that is different and not really worth much to other collectors, just trying to collect as many different die pairings as I can. There are at least 112 1864 dated pairs so far. I'm guessing there should be around 65-85 die pairs for 1865 at least also. maybe a bit more taking into account the fancy and plain 5. Each year the mintage drops so should be many less from 1865 on.

Pricing will always remain an elusive item for Two Cents at times but on-line auctions can usually assist.

This attached type of Barber quarter summary but for Two Cents would be ideal to help me nail down the Two Cent varieties more quickly when doing my attributions.

Are any type of lists available on-line that one could easily access?

Nothing that I'm aware of, maybe a plan for the future as I already own a couple URLs I could park them at.
